MiXto Pro® Skin Resurfacing

Kristen L. Biggs, MD, Skin Care & Vein Centre, PC is the FIRST facility in New Mexico to use the MiXto Pro® Micro Fractional CO2 Laser.

The MiXto Pro® is a pat﻿ented laser system which uses chopped continuous wave micro-fractional technology to deliver ablative laser energy with a 10,600 nm wavelength in a proprietary non-sequential "Z" algorithm scan pattern. One of the ways it differs from other fractional lasers is in this "Z" scan pattern, allowing the operator to deliver greater heat to the dermis while allowing maximum intra-operative cooling of surrounding tissue. The result is a lower risk of side effects with maximum patient comfort. In addition, the delivery of greater heat results in an improved cosmetic result with more collagen production, greater skin tightening, and higher scar reduction.*

Treatment areas include the face, neck, chest, hands, and arms. A single treatment of the face might produce dramatic results, compared to three to five treatments required to produce more moderate improvement with other lasers. Two to three treatments of the neck, chest, hands, and arms are usually required due to the lower laser settings required on these areas of thinner skin. Facial treatments take about three hours, with approximately 60 minutes of laser time.*
